Divine Intervention

While flying from Uruguay to America, I experienced some fearful problems, Some were real and some nightmares. I was tossing my handbag left and right I heard a sermon my mother used to sing I was quite engrossed for a few minutes Forgetting all the problems I was worried about. Hey, my co-traveler said, “your tape is running” I remembered recording my mother’s voice I think my mother came as protecting force Giving an edge over my imaginative problems. A mother is next to godliness, God personified. An event of March, 2010 confirms my belief. An Australian mum brings her premature baby son Back to life by loving cuddles when chances none. The doctors battled for twenty minutes gave up Of saving her lifeless baby boy of 27 weeks. Doctors gave the child to the mother to say goodbye The grieving mother cuddled him tightly two hours Bringing back her son to life, weighing 2 lbs. Twenty minutes of science, two hours of love. I bet it is nothing else but divine intervention +++ September 19, 2014 Form: Free Verse ***Second part of the poem relates to a miracle happened in Australia.

I love the way you told this story, Dr. Ram, such a straight-forward last line - and the lead-up with the metaphor of God and mothers is excellent. This is poetic prose of the first order.

That was really Amazing to Hear...TY For Sharing that with Me.When I had My Near-Death Experience at age 7;I was on The Other side a much longer length of time.My Moms absolute Heart wrenching Horrific Screams from Our side brought Me back...God saw My Heart and gave Me a second Chance...When I came back My Mom was holding Me dead in Her Arms so tightly that it started My heart beating again...So I believe You and Believe this..I was on the other side in a vast Garden sleeping like Dorthy in Oz.

Very very inspiring. Love is so powerful. Our Maharishis told about the power of love eons ago. They prayed Om Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah Sarve Santu Nir-Aamayaah | Sarve Bhadraanni Pashyantu Maa Kashcid-Duhkha-Bhaag-Bhavet | Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih || We can transcend death through love. In this poem you have shown they were right even literally. Thank you Mehtasaab for your gift. Regards.
